Both DCF & KDHE process programs in KEES. Even though each agency’s programs are on different case numbers, the majority of the person level data in KEES is shared. This means data collection pages in KEES are used by both DCF and KDHE to collect information and determine eligibility.
Since a large portion of the data is shared it is imperative that each agency communicate when critical data is added, edited or ended. Below are the scenarios and communication protocol decided by policy members from each agency that must be communicated across agencies. For more information on each data collection page go to Data Collection Page Desk Aid.
KDHE should create a Contact Log Entry within the context of the NON-MEDICAL case in the scenarios outlined in the chart below. KDHE should select the DCF location based on the worker ID assigned to the program block(s).
